WE are happy to state, that a Telegraphic Dig-. patch reached the Admiralty this morning, announc- ing the agreeable intelligence of the French having been driven out of Ferrol and Corunna% and defeated -o. l, ith considerable loss. As this news came by the "felegraph, we of course are unable to comrkiuuicate any particulars to our Readers. Last night we received Dutch Papers to the 29th which'contain Paris News to the 25th.- They confirm the account which we laid before our readers on Saturday, of the progress of the Austrians in Saxony. The number of Austrian troops that have passed through Dresden are said to amount to 2,0 thousand men, and a considerable number have passed through Bayreuth. The whole of this force will, it is said, be direEted against Westphalia. JE NO:,,IC BUONAPArtTE has, according to some accounts, taken the field to meet the approaching danger, but according to others, he has retired to Frankfort on the Maine. The French accounts of the amount and diposition of their troops are in .general so fal lacious, that it is almost impossible to speak. with any thing like precision, with respeEl to the force' which they now have in the North of Germany, but we should hardly suppose that they have a disposa ble force equal to that which has passed through_ Saxony under the command of the Duke of BRUNS WICK and General KLENALT. It is probable, how ever, that the Austrians, in pushing forward so ra pidly, d 3 not entirely rely upon their own strength, they look, we have no doubt, for the co-operation of the ,people of the countries through which they mean to pass ; and it is - not un4ely that they cal culate upon. the a.sistliice of tie Kin g of PRUSSIA. The intelligence u'utu the Banks of the Danube, in these Pater;, is not of so recent a date as that con tained in the Bulletins. The Leyden Gazette of 416 27th ult. contains a long answer to the charges made in the French Papers against the Dutch Edi: tors, for propagating news unfavourable to France. The sacrifices which the Dutch have made to pro mote the views of Buo.x.kpAtti.ty are detailed with more freedom than we have been accustomed to see in the Dutch Papers. Private Letters from Holland state, that the Dutch ports are to be closed on the 20th instant. The Favourite sloop of war has arrivedat Plymouth with Dispatches from Gijon, which place the French have e , .acuated, and it is , now in the possession of the Spaniards. We are sorry, however, to say, that she brings intelligence of the re-capture of St'. A n ,d ero by the French. A body of 3000 French Troops surprised that place on the night of the 12th ult. and massacred the greater part of the Patriots.— Two Spanish officers, a General and a Colonel, made their escape in a small boat, which they were obliged to row with muskets. They were picked up by one of our cruizers. Yesterday his MAJESTY, Princesses AUGUSTA, SOP4IA, and MARY, rode to St. George's Chapel, and heard Divine S,-rvice. So great is the anxiety of Government to *forward the,Grana Expedition, that they have proposed to employ foreign vessels as transports. A notification to this eifeLt 26 made on Saturday. They are to be hired at the rate of 255. per ton, pro% ided they are ready early in the week. The communicationbetween Munich and Viedna has ntcome so insecure from the incursions -of tlie Austrians and Tyrolians, that five waggons loaded with specie, which .were proceeding from Munich for the payment of the French artily, had, on their arrivAat Markel, been obliged to return to Munich, it was supposed would be sent for greater secu rity to Augsburgh. BUONA PAR fE s after the battle of Ratishon, order ed his military chest, and the greater part of the baggage of hi, army, to be sent back to Mentz, pro-, drising his soldiers abundant supplies from the Aus r trian'inagazines. In consequence of his recent dis appointments, he has been obliged to bring back his baggage, Sic. from the Rhine to Augsburgh, and to transport 'it from thence to Vienna on rafts.— Zarly in June, Cuuut I.OLLOWRATH intercepted three of these rafts, with a considerable quantity of t og gage and ammunition, on the Danube, below "Krems. It is said that the chief Proprietor of Covent Gar den Theatrp has liberally conceded to what appeared to be the pablic sentiment with respect to the en gagement of CATALAN!, amid has offered her woo goinea4 to be off the bargain. it is; however, nu t improbable that the solicitude dale fair SYren "'to have the' )leasure of singi,.g at the . ne.

PRAGUE, JUNE 15.—According to official intern- , gence just received from the Head-quarters of the Generalissimo Archduke Charles, which still con-. tinues in Grafin Neusidd, no aClion had taken place between the two grand armies ; but his Imperial Highness expeCted a battle would be fought the fol lowing morning, the 14th, and had taken the necca 7 sary measures for that purpose. The following account has been published BULLETIN OF TILL IMPERIAL ARMY, juNz 14- " Captain Menniger, of the cuirassiers of the • Archduke Francis, crossed the Danube on the 31st of May, and dispersed in Langenstein a detachment of Saxon dragoons of the regiment of the Dukes' Albert.

" When such articles are read in the public papers of a tiailon with which our own is so closely con- netted, •it_is hard to suppress the quick feelings they must excite in every upright breast. , What ! are there then persons who avail themselves of the French papers to accuse us of being the circulators of intelligence unfavourable to France, generated by rage and hatred against that country ? But, do not these persons know, that of all the nations allied to France, there is not one which has made such gnat sacrifices to the common cause as Holland ? Do they not know, that While the other united people have preserved at least some of 'the sources of their prosperity, Holland alone, which subsists by mer chandize, has not retained one of her's ? Are they ignorant of / the rigorous measures taken in Holland to prevent contraband trade ? Are they ignorant of the patience, the resignation with which Holland has supported the sacrifices which were and still are required to maintain the only system which can con tribute to the execution of the vast designs of the great monarch who governs France Are they ig norant that in spite of the absence of a great part of the army, the greatest order and tranquility prevails in the interior of the kingdom Do they not know that oven where hatred against France has induced and nourished troubles and inurrettions, the Dutch troops have rivalled the French armies in re-esta- blishing order and tranquility Do they not know that the Dutch troops have been present at all the viCtories which the French Generals have gained in Spain ? Are they the only persons in ,Vaurope who have so little knowledge of what passes as to be ig norant that it was precisely the Dutch troops who delivered the North of Germany from the robber, whom, according to their accounts, the people of Holland wished to see carry oti the King of West phalia?
